HARRY HILL FOUND GUILTY.
The Verdict a Big Surprise to Every
body Concerned.
Bill’s Lawyers to Prosecute Col.
Echols for Perjury—The Jury Out
Only an Hour—Hill’s Attorneys to
More for a New Trial and the Fight
to Be to a Finish.
Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 8. —After being out
about an hour the jury in the Harry Hill
case returned a verdict of “guilty.”
Judge Clark's charge was short and to
the point, and generally regarded as fair
and impartial.
There was an immense throng in the
court room when the verdict was an
nounced, but the only demonstration was
of surprise, the crowd whistling in signfi
cant chorus as it left the court room. The
almost universal opinion during the day
was that Hill would be acquitted. Solic
itor Hill’s speech did the work.
Hill's attorneys will move for anew
trial, and it is predicted that the next
fight will be to a finish, without any
quarter on either side, as Hill's family
will go to the last ditch to save him from
a felon’s stripes.
Hill himself takes his conviction hard.
He was more surprised than anybody
•Ise.
Another feature that will grow out of
the case will be the prosecution of John
W. Echols for perjury. The lawyers for
Hill have got it in for Echols, and will
not let up on him until they have their
satisfaction.

The town council met last night at the
residence of Alderman Adams. The elec
tion of a marshal was deferred. Two
names were offered for election, but as J
S. Neidlinger, the present marshal, has
not resigned, it was thought be3t to post

a Oat’s Bite That Amputation Was
Feared.
Homerville, Ga. Feb. 3.—The mild win
ter has brought out the leaves. Farmers
are at work preparing for their crops.
A little son, Harry, of H. Peagler,
while playing with a cat, was bitten by
him on the hand a few days ago. His
hand and arm became so affeeted that it
was thought awhile he would entirely
lose the use of it and probably have it
amputated. He is, however, at last ac
count, better. The cat did not appear to
be mad when it bit the bov.
Joel Griffis, a man about 50 years old,
who has been always a good citizen of our

given for his lunacy.
Reuben Stantield, a young man of this
place, was carried a few days ago to St.

GUARDING AGAINST FEVER.
The Conference at New Orleans
Brought to a Close.
New Orleans. Feb. B.—The conference
of health authorities, called by President
Oliphant, of the Louisiana state board
of health, for the purpose of adopting
quarantine measures and restrictions for
vessels during the fruit trade, completed
its labors this morning and adjourned
sine die. The conference was held
in the office of the board of
health on Carondelet street and was
presided over by Dr. Joseph Y. Porter,
health officer of the state of Florida Be
sides Dr. Porter, there were present at
the conference Dr. Jerome Cochran,
health officer of the state of Alabama;
Dr. R. W. Hargis, president of the board
of health of Escambia county. Florida;
B. G. Brent, secretary of thesame board,
and Dr. Oliphant.
S. M. Warrington, health officer of
Texas, sent a communication to Dr. Oli
phant, expressing regret at his inability
to attend the conference, but announced
his willingness to co-operate in whatever
measure might be adopted by the confer
ence. When the session was called to
order last night, several recommenda
tions were made, but it was decided to
leave to a committee composed of Drs.
Hargis and Cochrane, and Dr. Patton,
of the state board of health, the work of
drawing up regulations for adoption by
the conference. The committee met last
night and this morning submitted the re
sult of their labors, recommending that
medical inspectors be stationed at all
ports of the West Indies and Central
and South America, from which fruit is
shipped, that all vessels be
manned with acclimated crews,
providing regulations to be observed in
case of fever vessels carrying passengers,
which shall forfeit all special privileges.
The report was adopted by the confer
ence. hut will not become operative until
the state boards of health have passed
upon it.
Dr. Oliphant informed a reporter after
the conference had adjourned that the
fruit traders would be greatly benefited
by the adoption of the recommendations
made in the report.
Besides permitting vessels to carry a
more diversified cargo than formerly,
they allowed them to carry passengers
from non-infected ports and in many ways
modified the rigid restrictions that for
merly existed.
FRANCE’S NAVY.
Admiral G-ervals Loss* His Tomper
Before the Commission.
Paris, Feb. 3.—Considerable feeling has
been aroused by the appointment by the
Chamber of Deputies of an extra parlia
mentary commission to inquire into
naval affairs, and the first meet
ing of the committee has resulted
in a storm which will probably
be called to the attention of the cabinet.
Admiral Gervais is a member of the com
mission and at a meeting of the commis
sion yesterday he refused to shake hands
with M. Gueyesse, who is also a member
of the commission. Later in the course
of the meeting, M. Lookroy, who a few
days ago, interpellated the government on
the condition of the navy, took occasion
to praise the French naval officers, where
upon Admiral Gervais exclaimed: “The
naval officers do not need, nor will they
accept your encomiums.”
I-.a Lanterne to-day demands that the
government dismiss Admiral Gervais
for his treatment of Mm. Gueyese and
Lookroy.
THE STRAWBERRY CROP.
It Promises to Be Larger Than Usual
This Summer.
Starke, Fla., Feb. B.—The strawberry
Interest Is assuming quite considerable
proportions for this early in the season.
Fourteen crates of thirty-two quurts each
were shipped from Starke to-day to Cin
cinnati and Philadelphia. Late sales
show net returns of 55 to 60 cents per
quart, or about #lB per bushel crate.
Many in this vicinity are l>egiuning to
smile at their prospects, and already the
colored pemple are putting on airs and
showing checks.
Many of the colored people of this sec
tion are large strawberry growers and
work but little at anything else. They
call their strawberry patches their gold
mines.
A NEGRO SHOT.
A Movement as if to Draw a Weapon
Drew the Fire. #
Baxley, Ga., Feb. 3.—On yesterday Dr.
J. H. Lattimer, Jr., of Hazelhurst, shot
and seriously wounded a negro whose
name is not known. It is claimed that
the negro had made some threats against
the doctor, and that he was going armed.
When the doctor met him he asked him
concerning the threats, and the negro re
plied, "Yes, 1 made them, and 1 mean
what I say,” and then made an effort as
if to draw a pistol, whereupon Dr. Uat
timer shot him. The negro is in a critical
condition, being shot through the left
lung.
MEETZE NOT APT TO LIVE.
Miller Committed to Jail to Await the
Result of the Wound.
Columbia, S. C., Feb. 3.—Davis Miller,
who shot W. B. Meetze during the trial
of the dispensary cases yrsterday, was
fined S2O in police court to-day, and then
taken before a trial justice on a warrant
for assault and battery with intent to
kill. His attorney pleaded not guilty for
him and he was remanded to jail to await
the result of Meetze's injuries. There
seems to be very little hope of Meetze's
recovery and he himself expects to die.
The trial of the other cases for selling
liquor will be resumed Monday.

THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 4. 1894.
WEST VIRGINIA’S MAD ’ MOB.
Three Men Shot Before the Sheriff
Made the Miners Retreat.
Charleston, W. Va., Feb. 3.—Sheriff
Silman received a telephone message yes
terday to come with deputies immediately
to Acme as the Montgomery miners were
marching on the Stevens mines to make
Stevens’ men quit work. The sheriff
with a posse went up to Acme at 7 o’clock
p. m. and found Stevens' men out
ready to give the approaching mob a re
ception. They dispersed when the sheriff
came. At 10 o’clock a drunken mob of
nearly 300 strikers came up crying: “Put
out the lights.” John Foster was stand
ing in his own door with a lantern and
was fired on by twelve men and shot
through the groin. He may die.
THE SHERIFF REPLIES.
The sheriff's party fired fifty shots in
the air. Some of the miners ran; but the
rest came on shooting wildly. The sheriff
told them not to cross the dead line, or be
wouid fire into them. Two miners were
shot, one in the arm and one in the chin,
as is supposed, by their own men. The
sheriff's determined stand awed the mob,
and hearing that Foster was expected to
die, they sent a committee to Stevens to
say that if would furnish an engine and
cars they would go back. This was done.
The mob departed, and the sheriff came
back to-day. No further trouble is antici
pated.
ENGLAND S LABOR PARTY.
The Conference Votes to Stick to Con
stitutional Methods.
London, Feb. B.—The conference of the
independent labor party ended in Man
chester to-day. James Keir Hardie, M.
P., presided over the final session. A
motion that the conference
repudiate all sympathy and
relations with the anarchists
was the beginning of a heated discussion.
Keir Hardie participated in it to say that
it would not do to call one another names,
and that while anarchist and socialist
methods differed, it might be that the
anarchists were only more zealous than
other reformers.
Eventually the motion was amended so
as to declare that, inasmuch as constitu
tional methods were remedying the con
dition of the working man, the inde
pendent labor party would not ally itself
with any party adopting other methods.
CARE OF LIFE SAVERS.
A Bill to Extend to Them the Benefits
of the Naval Hospitals.
Washington, Feb. 3.— Representative
Wise, of Virginia, from the committee on
interstate and foreign commerce, sub
mitted to the House to-day—with the
recommendation that it pass—the bill ex
tending the benefits of the naval hospitals
to keepers and crews of life-saving sta
tions. Thereupon the bill states that
the people whom it seeks to aid, are em
ployes of the government, who are en
gaged in a service quite as arduous and
dangerous as that of sailors and seamen,
not employes of tho government, who are
carefully tended in these hospitals. Jus
tice, as well as humanity, seems to de
mand that the life-savers be given the
same privileges, and not be discriminated
against. The treasury department in
dorses the bill.

Special notices.
CONSULTING OPTICIANS.
' A STARTLING FACT,
That Tery few persons have perfect ayes. It
must be evident that it requires both knowl
edge and skill to know what the eyea need
and to fit them properly with glasses. Those
who trust this work to uninstructed dealers
are criminally careless of the most valuable
of all the senses, their sight. In addition to
graduating in Germany and my thirty years'
practical experience I hare taken a course
and graduated in a school of optics In New
York and learned the latest and best methods
of ascertaining the different defects of the
eyes and their proper correction, so that I
can fit you properly with glasses that will
strengthen and Improve your eyesight Instead
of rapidly ruining it. as poorly fitted glasses
will always do. No charge for examination.
